amurray88 Posted Monday at 09:03 PM #1 Share Posted Monday at 09:03 PM Hi All, I've just booked for the Britannia in 2025. My toddler will have just turned 2 (literally, the day before we go). Should I get them a cot? or will they be fine in a bed? I'm guessing it'll be a bunk but....and I think they'll be too young. Any thoughts or experience? Thanks!

July morning Posted Monday at 10:30 PM #2 Share Posted Monday at 10:30 PM Depending on what grade of cabin you have booked. I travelled with my daughter and grandson on Britannia in a balcony and it was a three berth and it had a sofa bed which was good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts or experience? Thanks! Some hotel rooms have a notice to say that children under a certain age (definitely older than 2) should not use the upper bunk. Another point to consider is whether your toddler will still be in a cot at home. Mine were all in the own bed by the age of 2 but had a bed guard. I would be inclined to book a cot. You can then decide whether or not to use it onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warrior85 Posted Tuesday at 04:03 PM #5 Share Posted Tuesday at 04:03 PM We've had our 3 year old in the bed with a bed guard whilst I slept on the top bunk, which I hadn't done for about 30 years, it was quite exciting 😄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts or experience? Thanks! Children of this age are much safer in a normal level bed. This leaves one with the dilemma of whether you expect your wife to ascend the ladder each night and whether this is sensible. Can you trust your wife to foot the ladder? How many times do you get up in the night? I think booking a cabin with a sofa bed is the only option to not get an ear bashing.
